The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 679

Everyone in the Jones family was ecstatic.

The problem that had been pestering them for so long was finally going to be resolved.

As people always say – when there’s a will, there’s a way. In this case, they’ve found Michael Jones’ grandson.

The younger ones were especially excited, so much so that they almost screamed out loud.

At last, they’ve managed to find a scapegoat.

Recently, the Jones family had gotten involved in a deadly feud during their business trip to Quebec. They had provoked a certain warlord in Quebec and were severely punished by the local military.

The compensation was fifty billion. Not only did they have to expend profits from multiple projects, but they also had to send 10 people from the Jones family to prison for a sentence of 30 years.

Those who would be sent to prison were basically giving up their lives.

The living conditions in the prison were hellish. The prisoners there were tortured every day and usually died a few months after imprisonment.

Besides having to send 10 members of the family to prison, another condition they had to fulfill was that among the 10 members, two of them had to be a male and a female who were direct descendants of the main family.

This was to appease the warlord.

The people who had to suffer needed to be from the main branch of the Jones family, so other branches of said family couldn’t substitute them.

Michael wasn’t willing to let his sons and grandsons suffer.

He didn’t want them to die in vain.

Each one of them were the Jones family’s future.

They were his precious sons and grandsons.

Patriarchal thinking was deeply ingrained within the Jones family.

The female descendant had already been decided. Even though it was Michael’s own granddaughter, he had no qualms sending her over.

However, he was reluctant when it came to the male descendants.

The Joneses have been struggling with this matter for the past few days.

Now that another grandson has appeared, he could replace them as a scapegoat.
